Biechel Cripples Selbst

Joining the action, it looked as though the hijack had opened and R��my Biechel had flat-called on the button. Vanessa Selbst then raised to 1,000 from the small blind and the original raiser had made the call but Biechel had now 4-bet to 3,750.

Selbst looked concerned, "I hate getting myself into these spots this early."

Despite this, after a minute or so she made it 8,750 to go and Biechel set her all-in after a little dwell. Selbst shrugged and made the call with {K-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} but saw here opponent's {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} which stayed good on the {A-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} board.

"It's like literally the only way I can broke there," she said disappointedly as Biechel scooped a 60,000 chip pot, leaving herself with just 500 chips. "Are there any side events going on today?"
